THE FIRST GUIDE TO ANCIENT AFFORDABLE ARTIFACTS--EACH OF THE 2,000 OBJECTS PRICED UNDER $300! Imagine holding a Neanderthal stone tool or a lamp that lit the darkness of Ancient Rome. Few people realize that a juglet from the time of Isaiah or a bead necklace from the age of the pharaohs can be bought for less than $300. The Official Guide to Artifacts of Ancient Civilizations is the only book of its kind, listing an array of inexpensive antiquities that were made in Europe and Western Asia before the fall of Rome in A.D. 476 or in pre-Columbian America. * COMPREHENSIVE. Each of the two hundred artifacts is priced and described in detail. The objects originate in the following periods: Early Man, Western Asiatic (Iranian, Phoenician, Judaic), Central Asiatic, Egyptian, Greek (Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic, Etruscan), Roman, and Pre-Columbian (Aztec, Mayan, Peruvian). * FEATURING ANCIENT SPECIALTY COLLECTIBLES. Rare items are covered in great detail, from Mesopotamian stamp and cylinder seals to Egyptian scarabs, ancient lamps, glass, and vessels to Greek and Roman cameos and intaglios. * INVALUABLE ADVICE. Learn the tricks of the trade, including how to start a collection and where to find particular items, plus a grading guide and a thorough explanation of values. * WRITTEN BY A PROFESSIONAL. A dealer in ancient and medieval art for almost thirty years, Alex G. Malloy has conducted more than forty-five auctions--all including ancient art--and has produced twenty-four specialized catalogs on ancient and medieval art and antiquities. Major museums around the world have purchased items from him. * FULLY ILLUSTRATED.
